EUROPEAN AFFAIRS.

M.Rouvier has formed his Ministry
with Gen. FeTron as Minister OF War,
who pledges himself TO continue the
work Of strengthening the defenses OF
France and increasing the discipline
Of the army initiated by his predeces-
sor, Gen. Boulanger, who, upon retir-
ing, assures. the soldiers and citizens
of the Republic that he will be among
the first ito give an example OF both
military and republican discipline"
M. Rouvier, in the statement he read
to the House oi.lDeputies, promises a
PRUDENT but firm foreign policy, and
he relies upon the Republican maj Or
ivy TO sustain him and his colleagues.
Whether they will or not remains to
DO seen. Competent judges regard
him as rather shifty and thrifty
politician who has a reputation for
experiences upon the Bourse. He is,
as was charged in the House yestsr-
day, the double Of M. Ferry, who ia
behind him and will prompt him.

New YORK. February 5.-The advance in

LONDON, February 5.-The week in
Parliament ends in mere confusion, as
there has been mere waste of time.
Strong efforts are being made to induce
Gladstone TO return 10 his place during

A meeting of the conservative party has
been summoned TO decide what action
shall be taken upon the local government
bill, concerning which, as have often
said, the party is at loggerheads and at
variance with its supporters, the liberal

The Correct Time.

There are very few men who do not
pride themselves on always having the
correct time; and wonderful and delicate
mechanisms are devised to enable them
to do so. But the more delicate q
thermometer is made, the more subject
it becomes to arrangement, and unless
it be kept always perfectly clean, it soon
loses its usefulness. What wonder, then,
that the hIman machine-so much more
delicate and intricate than any work of
Map-should require to be kept thor
oughly cleansed. The liver is the main
spring of this complex structure, and on
the impurities left in the blood by dis
ordered liver, depend most of the Ills
that flesh is heir to. Even consumption
(which is lung-scrofula), is traceable to
the imperfect action of this organ. Kid
ney diseases, skin diseases, sick head
ache, heart disease, dropsy, and long
catalogue of grave maladies have their
origin in a torpid, or sluggish liver. DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, by
establishing healthy. normal action of
the liver, acts as cure and preventive
of these diseases.

THE GAINESVILLE ELOPERS.
They Are Arrested Before Landing
at Liverpool, and viii Be Returned
To The u. s. at Once

Mr.. j. o. Chandler, of GAINESVILLE, was
in the city Tuesday morning, and from
him the latest particulars in regard to the
GAINESVILLE elopement were learned. 1t
has been before stated that before leav-
ing New York Mr.. Henry telegraphed
to have the guilty pair arrested as soon
as they arrived at Liverpool. 1t is
learned that such instructions were car
ried out, except that the clippers were
not allowed to land, but were detained
on board the vessel, which being an
American one, kept the parties under
the jurisdiction of this country. The
vessel left Liverpool on the return voy-
age several days ago, and it is expected
to arrive at New York on the 26th inst.
Last night the Sheriff of Waseca county
went to st. Paul, procured requisition
papers from Gov. McGill upon the Gov
ernor of New York, and upon the arrival
of the steamer at New York there Will
be nothing to prevent the guilty pair be-
ing at once brought to GAINESVILLE. Messrs.
Henry and Allen, who are in pursuit of
the fugitives will probably return with
them. If there is no hitch in the pro-
gram above laid down the rascally hypo-
critic and his disgraced paramour will
have justice melted out to them in short
er order than is generally prevalent in
such cases.
